This is an old clip taken last year. Some of you might have watched it. I thought it was cool, and motivational. Watch it again,it is time well spent for the weekend.

TED talk :Dan Gilbert
H/T to Eyal, I found this interesting talk. I am loving it. Just how often we are deceived by our own miscalculations of the future, and make the wrong decision. Good stuff for the weekend.

A walk in the forest
I felt a little bit burnt out last week. I was trying to finish my automated trading programming, busy and troubled by my day job, a little sleeping problem and at the same time doing some trading. Hectic. So, I needed a break from my machine, from the market.
We went to Sherbrooke Forest, Mount Dandenong for a nature walk. I felt really good, and totally forgot about market and my day job. Breathed in fresh air, enjoy the 20 degree celsius weather, that’s just so wonderful.
Here are some shots taken during the walk. Click to enlarge the image.
Happy New Year
Happy New Year to all my readers. Thanks for dropping by this small corner of mine for the past couple of years. By the way, this is the hottest New Year I have ever had (over 40 degree Celsius, or 104 Fahrenheit). Here is to a great 2008.

Merry Christmas
So what do you expect from a trading blog during the holiday season? Get a life, pal! It is time to relax and recharge yourself. Let’s get back to trading in 2008. Now, go home, give your loved ones a big hug, enjoy dinners with family for the next week. And of course, remember to make your donation for this month.
I am flying to Sydney, Australia tomorrow morning. One of the most beautiful harbour city in the world. Let’s see if I can post some nice photos later when I am back to my trading desk.
For you and your family,
Have a blessed Christmas, and a safe , happy new year.

Rambling…of a homesick trader
Again, I am posting the same song again. To be frank, it is tough living , relocating in a foreign country. Yes, this country is beautiful, but, I am kinda home sick. Am I doing the right decision by moving here? It is too early to tell.
Am I being emotional now? Yes, I am. I am feeling tired of my job, maybe. I feel I am constantly under stress. The only thought in my mind now is…I wanna go home. But, this is just a random thought though.
This post is just a piece my rambling. Leave it if you like.
